Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII opening cinematic gets unveiled

After months of teasing with costumes, gameplay screenshots, etc, we finally get to see the opening cinematic for the upcoming installment to Final Fantasy XIII. The opening video of Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII starts with a brief glimpse at the extravagant city of Yusnaan followed by an action-packed encounter between Lightning and her former Ally Snow.

Square Enix says there are 80 outfits for Lightning in the game, including a costume based on Yuna from Final Fantasy 10, Cloud from Final Fantasy 7 and Aerith as well (wait, what?), Miqo’te from Final Fantasy XIV, etc. Despite the DLC fest, it still looks to be an interesting turning point in the Final Fantasy XIII timeline.
